“The Blacknificent 7's newest offerings proved its most memorable. Geter's sumptuous Annunciation – given vigorous life by tenor Russell Thomas – is the sexiest thing to hit the Orchestra Hall stage in recent memory. Thomas was a welcome guest – it's refreshing, not to mention rare, to hear the star tenor in a setting other than opera.”
“Thomas defended the title role. The American singer has an impeccable, well-projected high pitch, a voice that can be heard throughout the theater, powerful and with attractive dark tones.”
“The quartet of soloists was terrific [including] Russell Thomas’s bright, clean tenor.”
